No train traffic in the Netherlands due to nationwide strike on Wednesday
Travelers in the Netherlands should prepare for major disruptions to public transport on Wednesday, September 9. Due to a nationwide 24-hour strike, no NS trains will be running for the entire day.
The action is part of a larger strike in the public transport sector. By halting train traffic, millions of passengers who normally take the train to work or school will have to look for an alternative means of transport.
NS advises travelers to adjust their plans for Wednesday. It is wise to check if it is possible to work from home or to travel on a different day. This is because the strike not only affects trains, but can also lead to extra congestion on the roads.
It is currently unclear whether normal service will resume after Wednesday. Travelers are advised to keep a close eye on the NS website and current travel planners for the latest updates on the situation on the tracks.
